Book description
The CRVE SUTE Bible is one of a few books to cover in one volume: Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, GoLive, Acrobat Professional 8 and Version Cue. Professional graphic design firms, ad agencies, and publishing houses do not usually work with just one of these programs when creating designs. Rather, they use a collection of illustration, image-editing, and layout programs to build their designs for print or the Web. This book will show readers who have a basic familiarity with Adobe software how to integrate and manage workflow among these applications. Topics covered include: Developing Consistent Color-Managed Workflows, Moving Files Among the CRVE SUTE Applications, Preparing Files for Print or the Web, Repurposing Documents, Using CRVE SUTE with Microsoft Office documents, and much more. This book will address issues that arise every day for the working designer or design student. Lead author, Ted Padova, is a well-known speaker, university instructor and service-bureau owner who’s become an expert using Adobe software over the past 16 years. Co-author Kelly L. Murdock has written over 20 books on Web design, graphics, and multimedia, and has been a co-author of the Illustrator Bible.
